Intensity
This parameter is used to adjust the light intensity of the Omnii backlight. Sliding the bar to
the left lowers the light intensity, and sliding it to the right raises the intensity.
Bright For
The value chosen from this drop-down menu determines the duration of time that the back-
light stays on at the configured intensity after the last user action (keypress, scan trigger).
Dim For
The value chosen from this drop-down menu determines the duration of time that the back-
light stays on at half the configured intensity (dimmed backlight) after expiration of the
Bright For delay and as long as no user action takes place (such as a keypress or scan trig-
ger). At the expiration of the Dim For duration, the display backlight shuts off.
External Power Checkbox
When you select the checkbox next to
When using external power keep the backlight always
ON
, the backlight remains ON at the configured intensity when Omnii is operating with ex-
ternal power (not battery power). If Omnii is drawing power from its battery, this option is
ignored and the other parameters defined in
Display Properties
dialog box take effect.
Note: Backlight changes take effect immediately. You do not need to reset the unit.
To maximize battery run time, keep the display backlight brightness and active
durations as low as possible.
